雅思口語的換題季來啦，famous person又是榜上有名!最近有不少薛之謙的迷妹啊，相信很多人都是因為他的勵志故事和善良而強大滴內心打動的，這種有故事的人，最適合拿到口語Part 2來聊了!把你了解的薛之謙跟考官介紹一下吧~ He used to be an actor, but things didn』t go quite well, I mean, the TV shows he was in were not that well-known, so after a few years, he changed his career path and became a singer, and that』s when and how he became a household name all over China. It sounds like a simple story, but actually it』s not. He』s been through a lot during the years when he was a nobody. He struggled for a long time, and his personal life suffered as well. His beloved wife left him, which was a terrible blow to him. And that』s why his songs are always about his ex-wife, you can sense the sadness and sometimes a broken heart. I would never recommend his songs to someone who has just been through a break-up. Anyway, what happened didn』t bring him down. He』s definitely not a quitter. So just to make a long story short, his singing career finally took off after his third album. It』s fair to say, his life story is really an encouraging one which has a positive influence on his fans, and also on me on a personal level. Whenever I feel frustrated or upset, I would think of him. Compared to what happened to him, my problem seems nothing. And what I admire most about him is that he』s got a heart of gold, I mean, he』s extremely compassionate. He』s got a great sense of responsibility and he』s active in charity work. 語言點解析： household name = a name that has become very well known 例如： She became a household name in the 1960s. nobody = a person who has no importance or influence 例如： She rose from being a nobody to become a superstar. blow = a sudden event which has damaging effects on somebody / something, causing sadness or disappointment 例如： Losing his job came as a terrible blow to him.
